	| @Marty, isn't that the truth! Inevitably, as soon as I pick it up the next time I spot a missed wing or pair. |

	| Hoo--HOOO! This was a good one. Two URs with some tough-to-spot naked pairs (26). |

	| Yeoks, I did it your way. There were a lot of numbers eliminated with just basics. Happy Fourth to all!

	| Geez, I take a break from Sudoku for a few weeks and look what happens to the Forum! 
   LOL!
 Good puzzle too.

	| Clement and I used the same steps on this one. It seemed to fall apart quite easily. |

	| Wow, you and I took different paths for a change, Clement! I used a XYZ-wing on 267 and then a super-duper XY-wing 125, which eliminated three 2's in box 5.
 Happy Bank Holiday/Memorial Day!

	| Or How about 
 UR with 43 forcing 8 r6c2. Maybe the purists may not like it as much
 Hey, that's the one I used. UR is as pure as the driven snow!

	| Two xy-wings for me, just like yeoks: 156 and 125. There was also an xyz-wing 568 but it wasn't necessary. |

	| You're absolutely right, MM; I realized soon after I posted it that "Havant" is where a friend from my University days now lives... *Havard's* piece is not only brilliant but also fun.

	| A small variation on Dan 
 1.UR 27
 2.XY Wing <469>
 I used one more step than MM: x-wing on 7 to start off with.
